The Consultations of God.

Have you ever seen, or perhaps
made one of a party who were going
to explore dark, deep cavern-the
Mammoth Cave of kentucky, or the
Catacombs of Rome? They all stand
out in the sunlight, and the attend
ants, who know the journey they
aregoing to make, pass around among
them and put into the hands of each
lighted candle. How useless it
seems-how pale and colorless the lit
tie flame appears in the gorgeous
flood of sunlight. But the procession
moves along; one after anotherenters
the dark cavern's mouth; one after
another loses thesplendor of daylight;
in the hands of one after another the
feeble candle-light comes out bright
in the darkness; and by-and-by they
are all walking in the dark, holding
fast their candles as if they were their
very life-totally dependent upon
what seemed so useless half an hour
ago. That seems to me to be a pict-
ure ofthe way in which Gods promis-
IS of consolation, to which we attach
very little meaning at first, come out
into beauty and value as we pass on
to our lives.-Phillips Brooks.

The Largest Farm in the World.

In the extreme southwest corner of
Louisiana lies the largest producing
farm in the world. 1t runs 100 miles
north and south, and many miles east
and west, and is owned and operated
by syndicate of Northern capitalists.
Their general manager, j. B. Wat
kins, gives an interesting account of
this gigantic plantation, which throws
the great Dalrymple farm in Dakota
into the shade completely.
"The 100000 acres of our tract
Mr.. Watkins said, "was purchased in
1883 from the State of Souisiana and
from the United States Government.
AT that time it was vast grazing
land for the cattle of the few dealers
in the neighborhood. When | took
possession | found over 10000 head of
half-wild horses and cattle. NV work
was to divide the immense tract into
convenient pastures, establishing sta
tions or ranches every six miles. The
fencing alone cost in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000. The land l found to
be best adapted to rice, sugar, corn
and cotton. All our cultivating,
ditching, &C., is done by steam pow
er. We take a tract, say half mile
wide, for instance, and place an en-
CINE on each side. The engines are
portable, and operate a cable attach
ed to four ploughs, and under this ar
rangement we are able to plough
thirty acres day with only the labor
of three men. Our narrowing, plant
ing, and other cultivation is done in
a like manner; in fact, there is not a
single draught horse on the entire
place. We have, of course, horses for
the herders of cattle, of which we
now have 10000 head. The Southern
Pacific railroad runs for thirty-siX
miles through our farm. We have
three steamboats, operating on the
waters of our own estate, upon which
there are 300 miles of navigable wa.
tiers. We have an ice house, a bank
a ship yard, and a rice mill. st.

A Farmers Salary.

a meeting was held some years
ago at the time of a State fair, to dis
cuss the profits Of farming. A hard
working man who was present said:
81 have been farming twenty years,
have worked hard all my life, and
have not been able to lay upanything.
1t has been one continued pull and
dig day after day, and / have only
kept even. tell you farming is bad
business" He was questioned, "How
large is your tamily?" The answer
was,, 81 have six children, mostly
boys, and part of them have grown
up" "You have sent them to good
schools ?" eyes, they have had
fair education" care you in debt?"
mo, nothing to speak Of; paid off
an old mortgage" The questioner
then remarked: "You have succeed
ed in these twenty years in raising
and supporting a family; they have
enjoyed the health of country life,
have had fair education, and have
not run behind hand. Could you
have done all these with the wages
ola mechanic, or the salary of a clerk,
buying all your family supplies, in
stead of using what you don't sell
from your farm? Every time you
gave your family a few miles ride
you would have to pay the livery
men instead of taking your own spare
team andthehundreds oflittle privi-
leges and extras which you now get
from the land, and which you scarce
! ly think Of, would run up large ac-
count if you had to. buy them. The
family you have raised and educated
shows you have made, your business
and lifea success, although you have
not thousands at interest. Many OF

to trade have gone under and are

from an "epicure in sound" But
there was little nourishment in these
musical utterances of one who SEEM
ed to have given himself up to "the
lazy luxury of poetical outpouring."
Though Coleridge was the best of
takers he was the worst of doors. In
dolence and opium eating begat his
discrepancy. His slavery to what he
called "the accursed drug" impaired
his mind and embittered his life. His
genius was mastered by his Incidence.
He never learned that no genius is
great enough to exempt its possessor
from patient industry.
His friends environed him with
great expectations. He died fulfill
ing scarcely any of them, because he
had neither the industry which works
steadily, nor the energy that makes
one achievement a stepping-stone to
higher attainments.
Such life is full of warning to
young men of genius. 1t says to
them: "You will fail unless you
learn in youth to bend your neck to
the yoke of persevering industry, and
keep yourself free from the slavery of
an evil habit"

What Happened to a Fighting Cock
That Tackled a Gobbler.

81 had a game chicken once" said
another Of the gossipers, "that l

and then wanted to tackle the yard

Finally one day a stray turkey COB
bier came on the premises and took
up his abode there. For day or two
there was no war. My rooster, it is
true, followed the gobbler around and
picked up gravel in front of him,
and once or twice made a point of
jumping him, but the gobbler seemed
determined to attend to his own bust
ness. About the third morning,
however, heard peculiar noise in
the yard. l heard the queer 'prut-
prut-prut,' of the gobbier and then
something that sounded like scuffle.
/ raiseda window and found that the
game chicken and gobbler were en-
gagged in war. / wanted to 60 out
and keep the rooster from killing the
gobbler; nevertheless I was interest

quent assaults on the gobbler. The
latter was walking around in circle,
uttcring his peculiar cry, and l motto
ed that every time the rooster flew at
him he merely dropped one of his
wings, receiving the attack on that.
This continued for some time, until
finally the gobbler darted forward,
seized the rooster by the back of the
neck and proceeded dead him around
in circle. The gobbler widened his
circle until he brought the rooster in
contact with the fence. This was ap-
parently the point at which the COB
bier had been aiming, for he had no
sooner reached it than he proceeded
to jam my ROSTERS head against the
pickets, and before / could interfere

Great, but a Failure.

A loving, gentle boy was Samuel
Taylor COleridge. When he was an
old man known as poet, philosopher
and conversationalist, his tender, gra-
cious, benign face made his friends
adore him. The sympathetic nature
of the boy shines out in an incident
of his school-days. He was rushing
though the street to be in time for
school, when he ran against an old
woman's apple-stand and upset it.
"Oh, you little devilW she shouted
after him, as he rushed on.
Looking back he saw the mischief
he had done. Instantly he returned
and gathering up the scattered fruit,
apologized for his heedlessness.
ooh, you little angel" exclaimed
the Modified woman, as she patted
his head.
He carried the same loving heart
through life, but not the same energy
to amend the plumbers of his own
life. He attracted great men by his
spacious, subtle intellect, and facinat-
cd them with his marvellous power
of "talk."
Wilson, the severest ofcritics, spoke
Of Coleridge's conversation as "elo.

The Successful Wife.

The successful wife must represent
to her husband all the virtues; must
be sympathetic, and at the same time
sensible. She must be bright, enter
tanning and agreeable at home as
well as abroad, and she must know
how to preserve silence when it is de-
sirable to hold her tongue, even
though she is ready to burst with in
dignation. Ifshe does not possess thes
qualities, let her cultivate them most
asiduously. And there is no trait that
is such a powerful factor in household
harmony as assimilation-to become
one in thought and purpose, to have
kindred tastes and wishes. The theo-
ry of the affinity Of opposites was
hopelessly exploded long ago, The
picture of a petite blonde Desdemona
clinging to swarthy 0thello is very
pretty, but if Othello's mind is out
of tune with Desdemona the affinity
cannot exist.

There is much complaint in this
century of woman's love for dress, but
we read Somewhere of maiden, far
back in the age of SIMPLICITY, who
in the course of one evening changed
her dress seven times, Her first ap-
pearance was made in a glistening
garment of blue and silver with a
splendid turban to match; this was
discarded for a gorgeous robe of pur-
pie satin, all looped and bordered
with gold the head dress consisted
of white plumes. Then followed a
green silk and emeralds. After this
camea straw color Ornamented with
flowers. Another all pink and silver
accompanied by feathers of various
hues, was succeeded by a sober brown
with rich ornaments. This fortunate
young lady finally arrayed herself in
simple white, which they tell lis ont
did all the rest.
